Thiel Owners

Guys-

I just scored a sweet pair of CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Anyone else currently or previously owned this model?
Owners of the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7 are free to chime in as well. Thiel are excellent w/ both tubed or solid-state gear!

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

Rob - to be clear, I meant to keep the 18 gauge going to the drivers, but you can increase the size between binding posts and XO panel.
Normal binding posts work. I'm saying to wrap the wire tightly before soldering. Let us all know when you find the perfect binding posts.

As you're retired, you might have some fun reviewing the Thiele/Small Parameters. 

I built my own speakers back in the monaural and early stereo days - - well before the Thiele/Small parameters were published.   Wish they'd been available then. 

Lotsa' fun.

Rob - a major part of the art is prioritizing the relative value of various aspects of the whole package. There is some experience on this forum - post your ideas and hope the guys will keep you out of trouble.

That's true.  Designing speakers is as much an science as much as an art.  Unfortunately some put too much science over the art part.
